Very playfully and can be shy from time to time but loves to sleep next to you

Shy at first but also very playful and loves to sleep with you at night

She's a SUPER sweetheart, but I just work so much any more and she deserves more attention.

We got Aura and another cat ( both Female) a couple of years ago from a family that had kittens. Aura has always been a little anxious and had a harder time settling, and after we had a baby she's retreated back to being very reserved and shy. With her anxiousness I believe she would do much better in a home with no other pets and no children. She has had the issue of spraying during heat with the other cat around, which we believe would stop if she got spayed. We do not have the ability to pay for it, which is why we would love to rehome her to someone who can meet all her needs. Aura is independent but also loves to cuddle occasionally. She loves setting in the window to watch outside, her favorite toy is a laser, and of course she loves her catnip.

This sweet girl was found as a stray. She was brought to Furry Friends Refuge to be spayed, when it was discovered she has a birth defect to her front left leg, but she gets around just great. Her Sternum did not form properly before she was born, so her heart is only protected by her skin. She absolutely LOVES people and wants nothing more than to be pet and loved. If you have a safe quiet place in your life for this sweet girl, please contact us to meet her and her foster mom will answer any questions.

Marvin is a miracle man who survived a fire that engulfed his home. He was thought to not have made it, but here he is! Since the loss of his previous home and coming to Furry Friends in January of this past year Marvin has been looking for a new home to start a new life with a family who will love him for who he is. He is a very shy guy who is asking for a calm house. He does well with other cats and is happy when he finds comfy spots to nap and relax.
